Re: Correct orientation of transmission front bearing

Let me try again

1.Has anyone else made this observation?

Yes I have observed the orientation of the bearing in the service manual

2. Has anyone had a failure?

Yes I have replaced dozens of worn/failed bearings on high mileage Packrd transmissions


3 Has anyone else swapped the shield to the outside?

I cannot do this, there is a groove with a snap ring on the outer race that determines the orientation of the bearing


Just the facts. Is this more helpful?? When one thinks of another problem will this information transfer and help on the next one?
